and thy exceeding great reward-Gen. XIV. l.
Time-Your Bible margin places it B. C. 1913;

Locality-Hebron, one of the oldest cities in
the Land of Promise, and the favorite place of
residence of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. An in

We may suppose that after Lot had gone from
Abram this unselfish man wasin some degree de-
spondent, discouraged. AT any rate. God at once
appeared unto him and treasured him of his fdeli-
tv to the original promise. Abram, being thus
comforted came to Hebron, and with character
istic plety there set up An altar unto God. After
separating from Abram, Lot was not long fortu-
nate. The cities OF the plain excited the
barbaric, but avaricious, clans of the East, and
were by them captured, and their spoils, includ-
ing Lot his family and his wealth. carried
away. Being informed of Lots misfortune

Abrams energy and tactics, however, prevailed
over the encountered horde he assailed, and
Lot was rescued and his property recovered.
Lot notwithstanding all this resolved to reafil-
late with the Sodomites.
THE LESSON APPLIED.
(a) The best of men may become discouraged.
!. They may have a reason for their despond-
ency nothing but their fears. g God, knowing
that he can do nothing with discouraged though
righteous man, proceeds at once to rescue him
from the meshes of his fatal mood Are you
ever discouraged 3. When the righteous are
discouraged God comes down to them. He does
not add to their prostration by insisting that
they rise to him. God is love, remember
tokens OF his pleasure l. The example OF
! righteous Abram in this particular we dare emu
late. 2. "If you love me say so" we have each
said many times to our earthly darlings; why
not say the same thing with added
fervor to our Beloved in heaven'
g. When we thus reasonably plead with God He
proceeds to comply with our wishes The ma
terial token is forthcoming More than one haa
come to me.
lc) God once addressed His people ia visions
now he speaks to them IN His WORD. ]. The
word of God comes to US as fresh from heaven as
1t came to Abram. 2. God has entered into 9
great covenant with us 10 Jesus Christ He il
to Designate we are to do. He defines the sac
rifce, We are to make it. 8 Gods word is laden
with promises for us. He will redeem them
every one The God of Abram is the God of the
Christian. We are realizing the full meaning OF
the Abramic covenant.

The crops-Harvest Accident-Impro

The Crops-Harvest Accident-lmproVement
The wheat and rye harvest is again over and
soon the oat harvest will be here. Many
think the wheat poor crop, but the rye is q
fair one and so will the oat crop be.
There is great deal of hay yet to make;
especially timothy. Upon the whole, gener-
ally speaking, if the corn crop should prove a
success, as it now promises, this year GER
tainly will be one of the most productive this
section has ever known. Many Of our enter
prising farmers, who have in other years
scarcely been able to make hay enough for
their own use, will have tons to spare this
year. Some who have been filling their bank
barns with hay and grain in other years, will
have no room in their barns for grain at all.
Thus far we have heard Of but one accident
this harvest while reaping That was at Mr..
Jno. C. Shpley's. Vincent, son of Mr.. Louis
Philips, while attending to the self-binder in

Our present wheat crop is not quite full
one, yet there are number of good yields in
the neighborhood. Rye could not have been
better and the oats crop is very heavy. Corn
never looked better at this time in the year,
and the hay crop is tremendous. Potatoes
and garden vegetables generally are all we
could ask for. Taking all things into consid-
Grafton our farmers are very fortunate.

The evidence was conclusive to Justice

sum Of 5000 for the action of the grand jury.
When States Attorney Henning read the law,
the accused suggested'to him that that was the
Delaware law, but when he was convinced to
the contrary, the case assumed serious
